Hi Guy`s I`am usually over on a board of a different color but need some help on a red one! I `am restoring a 1942 farmall H FBH107227 no suffix. It appears to be a gas tractor but has a disttlate manifold and hood no tank. The eng. serial number and chassis number match? can anyone tell me what is up ? Did they mix up parts because of the war effort as Deere did or am I not reading the numbers right the casting codes are L which I think are right? THANKS for any info. G.V.J.

I have three 1942 H's, two of them distillate and one of them high-altitude kerosene. The two distillates are serial number 101816 and 101821 both without a suffix and both of them still had the original dual-fuel manifolds on them, along with the extra hole in the hood, and one still had the special sediment bowl on the main fuel tank.

The third H is serial number 122068 X3B which is 5,000 foot altitude kerosene.

Every gasoline-only Farmall I've seen in the letter series has the X1 suffix or another that signifies gasoline only. Hope this helps!

It is a Dual or All fuel model. Gas only models will have an X1 suffix. They are nearly all on gas now days. The L casting code is for 1942.

THANKS for the info. I thought it would have a suffix for a kerosene or all fuel and none for a gas tractor. It does not have a suffix so that makes it a all fuel ? There is SOOOOO much to learn about old tractors!! THANK YOU!!

Correct. It should have a small starter tank forward of the main tank on the right side. If it's not there, it was removed as so many were when farmers started using gasoline only. They can be found, but it's a hunt. I'm looking for one myself for my '44.
